    Abstract:
    This study validated a simulated commercial baking processes for hard and soft cookies to control Salmonella, and determined D- and z-values of 7-serotype Salmonella (Newport, Senftenberg, Tennessee, Typhimurium, and three isolates from dry pet food) cocktail in cookie doughs. Cookie doughs were prepared using flour mist-inoculated with the Salmonella cocktail. Hard and soft cookies were baked at 185 °C for 16 min and 165.6 °C for 22 min, respectively, followed by 30 min of ambient air cooling. D-values of the cocktail in cookie doughs were determined using thermal-death-time disks. Studies were designed as randomized complete blocks with three replications as blocks (α = 0.05). Salmonella populations decreased by > 5 log CFU/g in hard and soft cookies at 11.5 and 20.5 min of baking, respectively. Salmonella was not detected in hard cookies at the end of baking (as determined by enrichment), whereas in soft cookies, 0.6 log CFU/g Salmonella was present at the end of baking and cooling. Salmonella D-values in hard cookie dough at 60, 65 and 70 °C were 59.6, 28.1 and 11.9 min, respectively; while in soft cookie dough they were 62.3, 28.6 and 14.4 min, respectively. The Salmonella z-values in hard and soft cookie doughs were 14.5 and 15.8 °C, respectively.
